We take all reasonable care to ensure that all details and descriptions of Products are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered on to the Website system.

If a Product you have ordered is temporarily unavailable or discontinued by the manufacturer, we will inform you by email as soon as possible and offer you a substitute item.
